EASILY IS
McClou 1 proved a mystery,deep and
puzzling to the Springfield team yes
terday. Only in one inuiug did they
find liiin and then the two runs ina<ie
were largely a> .is'ed over the plate by
errors. The Danville twirler struck
out JO men, gave two passes and al
lowed the visitors lac two hits. Iu the
first three iunings he struck seven of
the nine men who faced him.
Outside of McOloud the game wan
marked by no exactly thrilling work
by either team. The two bunches di
vided honors iu the error column,each
side registering six. Hines and Howe
were in the box for Springfield and
both were hit freely. This together
with a number of passes and stolen
bsses served on silver platters enabled
the locals to escape with a ronud doz
en tallies.
Seven of Danville's runs were made
In the fourth. In this inning three
singles, a double, a sacrifice aud two
ba-es on bulls entitled the locals to 7
runs. In the sixth Danville made three
mere. Thomas'opened with a single
and stole second, Coveleskie fanned,
but Hess got first on Bingham's error.
Umlaut went down on one to the pitch
er. Mackert's drive to left scored
Thomas ,md Hess, Mackert scoring be

River Transportation Test.
The United States Ste«l ci rporatkm
has started an investigation of the rel
ative values of water and rail trans
portation of large consignments ■ 112
products intended 1"> r the south i r any
other point which can be reached by
both rail and water. A model barge
with 100 carloads of steel pipe, four
solid trains, was recently started for
New Orleans front Pittsburg, and at
the end of the journey the cargo will
lie most carefully inspected for dam
age in transportation. It has been al
leged by the water people that the
loss by breakage on a rail consign
ment is four times that of a corre
sponding water haul.
Noninflammable Picture Films.
The discovery of n secret process for
the manufacture of noninflammable
films for moving picture machines was
recently announced by a company in
Rochester, X. V Should these films
possess the qualities claimed for them
the thousands of moving picture
shows thi' ughout the United States
will lie comparatively safe from ex
plosions and fires. A demonstration of
the process for making the new film
was given the other day at Rochester.
The film Is put through several baths,
filters and mixtures, and an Intricate
mechanical apparatus Is required for
Its manufacture.
Lock After Your Property.
It is a safe rule in this world to look
carefully after the details of your own
property. Be sure your title deeds are
recorded, that your insurance is kept
up. that you alone have tho key to
your strong box in the safety vault.
Do not have your securities with your
broker. If he is doing a conservative j
business he has no need of them. 1 112 he
isn't you don't want him to handle j
your property. The wonder is that ;
•with all the confidence reposed iu j
financial matters there are so few def
alcations. There is no use in making |
it easy for - me < r:e to ret your pro]
erty l'i this u, r:d it is hard for most
persons to acquire anything, and they '
should be > areful to the last degree in
seeing that they are fully protected in
it. —Philadelphia 1 nquirer.
'SALE AND HSE
l! OF FIREWORKS
■l Notwithstanding the near approach
- of the Fourth of July it is gratify rg
d to note the respect in which the bar
ough ordinance is held relating to tt,e j
r sale and use of fireworks. Up to a few j
• years ago it was pretty hard work »c ;
e etifor ■ the orllaascfl and dor r.g
s week prior to the Fourth the pol: e
t were kept busy looking up offenders. •
- Arrests »ud imposition of fiues were '
t not uncommon. The better state of \
e affairs prevailing demonstrates how
j easily the public can be educated into
? a full ar.ii literal observance of rules
• and regulations that may be imposed 1
r for the poblic good.
1 BURGESS' ATTITUDE.

b terday stated that he is gratified to |
fir.d the towu so quiet and that it is
his inteutiou to see to it that it is
P kept so uatil the eve of July 4th. Al!
of which implies that the ordinance '
will have to be observed.
•
The rules and regulations relating to (
, the sale and use of fire works as .laid i
. down by the borough authorities are I
very simple aud are easily borne iu j
a mind.
i

from the three-year-old point of view
to understand the new order of tliinss
A few days after the funeral she
was sent to visit an old family friend
that her mother might enjoy a day of
uninterrupted quiet. Very seriously
she related how they had put her
grandma * a deep black hole and no
j body could see her any more.
rler hostess was profuse in her ex
presslons of sympathy and tried to
; impress the little one that she, too, i
would miss her grandmother very I
i much.
"Oh, don't let it worry you," she ex
claimed: "I've got another one."— Not

A New City a Thousand Years Old.
: j Rudapest, whose front is circled with
lights like a crown, \vho3o hills i\ -
dark and feathery above the river,
whose parliament buildings run along
the bank and are second to none but
Westminster—Budapest, bright, Hash
ing, gay, beautiful, modern and rich,
ardent and executive, close built and
' amalgamative, blender of peoples—i
1 the product of only a few decades, and
yet at Its last exposition it celebrated
its thousandth birthday. Pest, to the
right of the river—for the cities arc
' twin and divided by the Danube—Pest
dates back to 1200, and Buda was the
Ofen of the Romans. Buda climbs up
the opposite bill, today mafSylficcntly
1 new, but sown round witn green
1 crumbling walls that mark the passing
of the original founders whose painted
' galleys came up the Danube from the
lllack sea. The twentieth century civi
lization, sharply new and powerful,
) must for a moment be brushed aside
j and the Buda of mediaeval times putin
j its stead.—Marie Van Vorst in Ilar
i per's Magazine.
Gathering Cloves.
j Cloves are now cultivated in many
• of tiie tropical regions of the earth. A
: clove tree begins to bear at the age of
: ten years and continues until it reach
: es the age of seventy-five years. Then
! are two crops a year, one In Juno and
' i one in December. The tree is an ever
I green and grows from forty to fifty
i feet high, with lart.e oblong leave
| and crimson flowers at the end of
I small branches in clusters of from ten
ito twenty. The tree belongs to th<
same botanical crder as the guava
, The cloves, which are the undeveloped
. buds, are at first white, then liirlit
I green and at the time of gathering
. i bright red. Pieces of white cloth an
spread under the trees at harvestin;
time, and the branches are beaten gen
tly with bamboo sticks until the cloves
drop. They are dried in the sun, being
tossed about daily until they attain
the rich dark color which proclaim
them ready for shipment.
